By Margaret L. Smykla Contributing Writer MAD DADS was a prime focus of the May 15 meeting of the Zone 3 Public Safety Council. The meeting was conducted by group vice-president Liz Style in the absence of president Ken Wolfe.

The Greater Pittsburgh Area MAD DADS is a volunteer, nationally affiliated faith-based Christian, nonprofit organization that prepares men to restore safe communities.

MAD DADS stands for Men Against Destruction – Defending Against Drugs and Social Disorder. The group is comprised of community fathers whose mission is to maintain safer communities while impacting the issues of drugs, gangs, and violence.

MAD DADS develop and implement neighborhood street patrols and programs designed to maintain safer neighborhoods and communities.

Its signature program is

neighborhood street patrol in which the volunteers target “hot spots” and go there to interact with youth who are at-risk, due largely to family dynamics, of getting into trouble.

“A lot of crimes are crimes of opportunity.

“The idea is to be there as a positive influence in the community,” MAD DAD founding member Jay Gilmer said.

Officer Nathan Auvil said there was vandalizing by juveniles of the recently renovated Knoxville branch of Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh on Brownsville Rd. About eight volunteers from the MAD DADS organization hung out on the corner with the goal of providing mentorship.

Resident Roy Blankenship said he reached out to MAD DADS to come to the Hilltop neighborhoods. He is himself a MAD DAD now, and said a lot of residents say “thankyou” for the work of the MAD DADS. Continued on Page 6

By Margaret L. Smykla Contributing Writer Vice-president Nick Viglione conducted the May 15 meeting of Mt. Oliver council in the absence of council President Amber McGough.

In the police report for April, Mayor James Cassidy reported there were 602 total calls and 37 drug-related arrests, the latter for the seizure of marijuana, crack cocaine, heroin, and drug paraphernalia.

There were also 18 domestic calls, one accident report, eight criminal mischief reports and eight fights.

Five burglaries were reported on Hays and Amanda avenues and Locust and Anthony streets.

The police department served seven arrest warrants, including on a male who sold heroin to undercover officers.

All officers are trained in the use of Narcan, a prescription medication that immedi-

it almost didn’t happen.

Curtis “Snuffy” Schmitt, the de facto chairman of the committee, explained the chief organizer of the event in previous years, Carl Cantella, had passed away this past year. In prior years, he organized a meeting of many of the South Pittsburgh veterans’ groups shortly after the first of the year to begin planning the services.

Mr. Schmitt said only three people from two organizations attended the first meeting in January. The attendance wasn’t much better in February and they considered scrapping their plans.

Word spread and the March meeting had representatives from all the veterans’ groups involved in the committee and decided the Memorial Day services would be held.

“I would have hated to see it go away. Not just for the veterans, but for the people who

Although the services will continue, there may be some scaling back. At each memorial there will be a short prayer, placing of a wreath, rifle salute and playing of Taps with bagpipes and bugle by the Warble family.

As always, the opening services will be at the boat launch in South Side Riverfront Park, off 18th Street, beginning at 8 a.m. Following the opening ceremony memorial services will be performed at VFW Post 6675 at 20th and Sidney streets, Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh – South Side at 2205 E. Carson Street, Fire Station 24 at 1724 Mary Street, and the Polish Veterans Memorial at 1807 Jane Street.

Council also approved an estimate from Allegheny Fence for a fence and guardrail at the Walnut St. parking lot for $9,300.

In the fire report for April, there were 58 calls, of which 42 were EMS incidents and 16 were fire incidents. The Red Cross is helping the displaced occupants of a recent Ormsby Ave. fire.

issued, one demolition permit issued, three occupancy permits issues; and three condemnation notices sent.

Councilman David Beltz said if anyone observes uncut grass and/or neglected yards, to call the borough with the address.

In the public safety report, police Chief Matt Juzwick said officers monitored Ottillia St. traffic for a week, and only one car was stopped for a violation. There have been residents’ complaints about speeding, etc., in the area. The mayor said officers may return there in the future.

Council then voted 6-0 approve the Narcan policy, which provides borough officers with guidelines for administering nasal Naloxone.

Pittsburgh and Allegheny County young people between the ages of 14 and 21 have an additional time to apply for Learn & Earn, the summer youth employment program.

Partner4Work, the organization tapped to coordinate the program on behalf of Allegheny County Executive Rich Fitzgerald and Pittsburgh Mayor William Peduto, extended the application deadline to 11 p.m. June 3 to allow more young people the opportunity to apply for the six-week, paid summer jobs program. The application can be found at www.jobs4summer.org.

Learn & Earn is a joint effort to connect 1,300 city residents and 700 county residents with job opportunities that position them for later careers. In 2016, Learn & Earn delivered summer jobs to nearly 2,000 teens and young adults who, in turn, returned more than $1.3 million in wages to the local economy.

Participating youth worked an average of 150 hours each and received soft skills and other work-readiness training during the program.

The work period for 2017

begins on June 26 and runs through August 4. Work-readiness training and orientation begins June 19. Pay rates vary according the type of job offered. Most young workers will earn $7.25 per hour; young people ages 17 and older selected for the competitive corporate internship experience will earn $8.50 an hour.

In previous years, young people have organized summer camp activities, produced documentaries, conducted research, performed office work, planted urban gardens, developed and tested video games and more as a summer job.

Applications must be completed online, and all supporting documentation must be uploaded for an applicant to be considered for the program. Anyone needing assistance in completing the application can visit one of 19 application sites across the county. A complete list of the support sites, as well as other important information, can be found at www.jobs4summer.org.

For more information, call Learn and Earn at 412-9322950.

The Hot Metal Bridge Faith Community is hosting an evening Vacation Bible School during the week of June 19 on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 6:30-8:30pm.

This year’s theme is, “Branching Out: Connecting Through Christ.” Children will experience games, stories, and crafts.

in Slippery Rock for a day of swimming, rock climbing, and other fun camp activities.

The program is open to all kids who have completed kindergarten through fifth grade and there is no cost to participate.

tims. The goal is to provide immediate assistance via the use of naloxone where appropriate, to provide any treatment commensurate with their training as first responders, to assist other EMS personnel on the scene, and to handle any criminal investigations that may arise.

Fatal and nonfatal overdose can result from the abuse of opiates like morphine, heroin, fentanyl, oxycodone, and hydrocodone.

There is no financial cost to the borough.

In the public works report, Councilman Justin Viale said two part-time employees were hired for the summer, and there may be more.

The soccer nets were erected.

Saint Joseph St. was cleaned up. There are 50 tons of salt to carry over for next winter.

In the economic development report, Councilwoman Barbara Keener reminded everyone the borough’s 125th Anniversary celebration will be held from 2-8 p.m. on Aug. 5 at Transverse Park.

She said old photographs will be displayed in the former pet shop. Residents are asked to donate photos of old-time businesses and people.

The borough is also looking for ideas for the design of teeshirts with the 125th Anniver-

sary theme, “Remember, Reimagine, and Revitalize.”

Under resolutions, council voted 6-0 to appoint borough manager Rick Hopkinson as the designated official for the FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) Disaster Assistance Program.

In the questions and answers session which concluded the meeting, resident/former councilman Frank Bernardini said “sixty-five percent is not acceptable,” referring to the amount of borough taxes paid so far this year. The number was quoted earlier in the meeting.

“Thirty-five percent are dragging their feet,” he said.

If the taxes are not paid by June 30, a penalty is added on. Unpaid bills are eventually turned over to the Keystone Collections Group for collection.

Mr. Bernardini also said the borough should publish the list of delinquents, including for non-payment of garbage bills.

“There is no excuse when this goes on and on and on,” he said. Mr. Viglione agreed, saying some residents have been getting away with not paying taxes or fees for years.

The next council meeting will be on June 19.

The South Side Chamber of Commerce honored third grader Tyler Norman as the Pittsburgh Phillips K-5 Student of the Month for May. Pictured with Tyler (front center) are Principal Michael Calvert; Ebony Pleasant, mother; Brianna Pleasant, sister; Tyrone Norman, father; award sponsor Magisterial District Judge Richard G. King; and chamber board member Rebecca Kasavich.

MAD DADS make an impression Continued from Page 1 A South Hills chapter will be opening, for which men and women volunteers are needed.

Mr. Gilmer said volunteers need not be tough or talkative. The group planned to be at Knoxville Library again on May 20 wearing bright green tee-shirts or vests.

“We will go anywhere you want us to be,” Mr. Gilmer said.

City Councilman Bruce Kraus, a Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh Board Member, thanked them for their work at the library.

“We don’t want to see people afraid to use the library because of the behavior of a few,” he said.

In public safety news, he said the new 12th to 17th East Carson St. safety zone “is performing better than hoped.”

When public safety vehicles need to get by, motorists are supposed to pull into the pullover lane until the emergency vehicle passes.

But on Friday and Saturday evenings, it is solely a safety lane as congestion makes it difficult, if not impossible, for police and public safety vehicles to make quick passage if an emergency arises.

While there are meters, motorists may not park on the south side of East Carson St. from 12th to 17th streets on Fridays and Saturdays from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. It will likely be extended to 3 a.m., he said.

The four-week educational period in which violators received a warning ticket has passed. From now on, viola-

tors will be ticketed. Vehicles may be towed.

On another issue, he said legislation was introduced to prohibit animals in circuses in the city. He is working with humane organizations on the matter, and believes it will eventually have the support of council.

Another potential piece of legislation would prohibit roof parties. Mr. Kraus said there have been too many local stories lately of college students partying on roofs and falling to great injury or death. The legislation is currently undergoing review by the city law department.

The meeting began with Zone 3 Commander Karen Dixon reporting that already this year, there have been 179 overdoses – 21 of them fatal – in Zone 3. The highest prevalence of overdoses occur, in order, in Carrick, Mt. Washington, and the South Side Flats. The ages range from 17 to 71.

For the problem of speeding motorcycles on Grandview Ave. in Mt. Washington, she was meeting with city officials that week about a solution.

In her comments, community relations Officer Christine Luffey said basketball hoops on city streets or property are not legal. A mediation was scheduled the next day about hoops on Copperfield Ave. in Carrick.

Commander Dixon said they like to resolve, not cite, as youngsters are outdoors playing. But they can’t be dis-

Car cruise will be part of the Prince of Peace Parish Festival Prince of Peace Parish will be holding its annual Summer Festival from June 21-24.

This year, a Classic Car Cruise is planned for Saturday, June 24, from 5-10 p.m. on 13th Street between E. Carson and Sarah streets. The

car cruise will feature some of Pittsburgh’s finest rolling “works of art.”

In addition to the car cruise, there will be food, music, games and more. Come to show off a hot rod or classic car and relax in a familyfriendly atmosphere.

ruptive to the neighborhood, she said.

Next, Assistant Chief Anna Kudrav reported on a new community policing initiative in all the zones in which one officer will be designated to one neighborhood with specific concerns. It will differ from the community resource officer program in that it will be the officer’s full-time job.

“This is a new thing for us,” she said.

The officer will participate with community groups and more, and utilize best practices to solve problems. The officer will be trained and informed on city services. Its success depends on everyone working together, she said.

To a question on whether the officer will work with block watches, she said there will be collaboration with every community stakeholder.

In upcoming events, state Rep. Jake Wheatley will host a health expo weekend on Aug. 18-20.

The agenda includes: a reception at the August Wilson Center on Aug. 18; a race in the Hill District on Aug. 19; and the health expo from 1 to 4 p.m. on Aug. 20 at the Warrington Recreation Center. The Hilltop event will include free screenings, giveaways, and job information.

All block watches are invited to participate in the annual “Communities Against Crime” block party. No date has yet been set.

OpenStreetsPGH will be held from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Sunday, May 28.

This will be the third year for the event in which three miles of city streets will be closed to traffic from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. for joggers, bicyclists, walkers, and skaters to use the streets for fun in a car-free environment.

Traffic car crossings will be along East Carson St. at S. 10th, S. 13th, and S. 18th streets, and at the Birmingham Bridge.
